Re: detail screen in video player example

Have you tried Text instead of Color?

theme.SpringboardActorText  = "#FFFFFF"
theme.SpringboardRuntimeText = "#FFFFFF"
theme.SpringboardGenreText = "#FFFFFF"

It may be a typo in the documentation.

And not quite everything is capable of being set to custom colors just yet.

Re: detail screen in video player example

Just tested those three theme parameters, and they are working fine for me.... Looking at the previous question you had, I think you may have just forgotten to call setDescriptionStyle("movie") on your springboard. Without setting the description style the actors, runtime, and genre aren't displayed at all...



theme.SpringboardActorColor = "#FF0000"
theme.SpringboardRuntimeColor = "#FF0000"
theme.SpringboardGenreColor = "#FF0000"
....

screen = CreateObject("roSpringboardScreen")
screen.setDescriptionStyle("movie")

Re: detail screen in video player example

Strange thing was when you set to movie and not video it changes some of the other colors...

But Videos is a better option anyways, since i have no movies...

Re: detail screen in video player example

On roSearchScreen, the title theme color is:

theme.SearchHeaderText = "#0000FF"

On roKeyboardScreen, there is not title and the label under the text entry box is not currently skinnable.
